A Pheasant Farm,

A gentleman utilities his farm lands
at Lihrook, not far from London,
which IN these days of agricultural de-
preston he found difficult to let by
turning them into "a model game farm.
Pheasants are here reared with the
most scrupulous care, and the processes
of securing and collecting the eggs,
Matching, nursing, and feeding the
juvenile pheasants, etc, provide occu-
patton for number of workers. From
his 5000 BIRDS usually on the farm the
game breeder sends pheasants all over
the world to stock preserves, but he
supplies eggs, most carefully packed in
cases devised by himself and made on
the premises, to breeders 1T distance,
who artiiclally hatch Their own eggs.
The dev ces for securing the safety
of this valuable and perishable stock
are many and various, and great pre-
cautions are taken to prevent any de-
probation. Huge mastitls and St.
Bernard dogs traverse Il length OF wire
cable viii Ii surrounds the farm stretch
ed on the ground, upon which their
CHAINS are fastened in lengths of one
hundred yards, and Il very effeclual
police force they make, not allowing
approach from anyone, friend or
stranger. without well recognized
credentials. Rats are terribly de-
structive to young birds, if they can
get at them. but here they are not only
kept at bay by curved IRON fencings,
such as we see at the geological gard
ems, but this year electric batteries are
so placed that if wire is touched by
the marauder the shock proves too
much for him and he tumbles over
dead.
Partridges are not SO difficult to deal
with as pheasants, and there are thous
andS of them ON the Lhrook farm fly
ing about and taking care of them
selves All the stock birds are kept in
aviarles open ut the top. and Their
wings are clipped every three weeks.
The labor of this seemed to me enor-
nous, but the game farmer says that it
is nothing as compared to the expense
of covering in forty acres of aviaries. -

A Cent an Acre.

A sale of seven thousand acres of
land belonging to Mrs. j. Watson Will
liams, being part OF the Munson estate,
was held in Utica yesterday afternoon.
The land is in the Remsenberg patent
and Walker tract, Oneida and Herkimer
counties. There was ia attendance
of bidders, mostly from out of town. al
though bids did not run high. The gen.
eral impression seemed to be that q
man who had none of the land was bet
ter off than he who had, and as q con-
sequence most Of the plats were started
at cent per acre, and increased at l.
cent bids until the selling price was
reached. Only in one or two cases
was the bidding what might be called
spirited. Some of the sales were: Five
hundred acres, 10 cents per acre, 3S4
acres, 55 cents per acre; 50 acres, 20
cents per acre; 434 acres, 5 cents per
acre; $40 acres, IL cents per acre; 81

CHAPTER TX.

In a large room, on the lower floor OF a
dngy house In wretched neighborhood. sat
Morry and Scanty something like ten days
subsequently to the formers interview with
Norton, which has been described in previ-
Gus chapter
The furniture of the apartment consisted
of cot which had seen its best days, the
bedding Of which was worn and filthy, three
chairs and a broken pine-wood table. The
sickly uncertain light of a solitary candle,
which stood ON the table at one side of a
spacious, old-styled chimney-place, fell but
dimly upon the faces of the two men, and
left Abe distant corners of the room obscured
in deep gloom.

sNHAPTER VII.


Some time elapsed after Norton's departure
before Ella found herself sufficiently compos.
ed to review the Incidents of the past two
hours aud decide upon her future movements.
Her own sense of self-repect would not per
init her to remain longer an inmate of Mrs.
Stevens family. She must seek shelter else
where But where should she go. She who
knew so little of lfe-an entire stranger in
the great busy city--must go forth to battle
with the world-a world so full of disappont-
ments and poor in sympathy. Her heart grew
faint and cold within her at the thought.
She retired to her chamber, and there, upon
her knees, prayed to Heaven for succor in
this her hour of greatest need. She arose
with more courage and seif-rellance, feeling
an assurance that-e0me way cut of her misery
and despair would be opened to her. When
the dinner bell sounded she Gid not 60 down
stairs, for her head ached. and her eyes were
red and swollen from weeping. She seated
herself at the window aud gazed out into the
gathering gloom, eudeavoriny TO settle upon
some plan for the future. She decided to
leave Mrs. Stevens house the next day, and
obtain comfortable room In some quiet
neighborhood; then she would set about seek
ing employment. She felt that she had
several resources. She possessed highly
cultivated soprano voice, and was also good
pianist, and fully competent, therefore, to
teach vocal and Instrumental music She
was thorough French aud English scholar
Certainly possessing these accomplishments,
she reasoned, she ought to experience but
little difficulty In providing for herself. Alas!
she did not know how many highly-glfted
men and women have struggled and are
struggling to-day against privation and want,
only to fall, In the end, weak and worn vic
tins before their cruel adgersaries. She did
not dread the perspective struggle half so
much, now that her plans were formed. She
had but one fear-the persecution OF Fred
erick Norton. She could not drive from her
memory his last speech: "You shall bitterly
repent these words--remcmber And the
malignant look which had accompanied the
words was still fresh In her memory She
must avoid meeting him again; yet how could
she, IL he saw fit to seek her outl Suddenly
an excellent idea presented itself. She would
change her name, and thus evade him. Her
mothers name was before her marriage War
burton. She would adopt that, and hence
forth be known as Ella Warburton.
She was startled from her musing by the
sound Of some one tapping upon her door.
Opening It, she found Molie, the chamber
maid, standing without

ALL BUT A MIRACLE.
A Cincinnati Woman Fleets n Rome
from Her Lungs.

from Her Lungs.
One of the most wonderful deliver
ances from certain death came to ght
yesterday. SAYS The tincinnati Enquir-
or, and is exciting the local medical fra
ternity to no small degree. On the 18th
of November three years ago Mrs.
Winter, wife of George Winter. living
at No. 1853 Spring street, while eating
dinner with her ch ldren. in the absence
of her husband. swallowed a bone
about the size of navy bean. She felt
the bone going down the wind pipe, the
jagged edges of it causing her the most
excruciatng pain in its downward
course. Half suffocating and dazed
with agony, she managed to call for
help.
Kind ne ghbors responded, physi-
clans were sent for, but the case seemed
hopeless. Opiates to dispel, or at least
soothe. the dreadful sufferings of the
lady were administered. Though AS
years old she rallied and then began II
systematic course OF treatment. DR..
Zipperlen took the case in hand. but
pronounced it incurable,
His. diagnosis was that the bone had
lodged in the lung, and its removal
was an utter imposs bilty, decay of tn,
lungs must ultimately set in and death
was only question of time. Drs.
Ei,klcrt, Amick, Wise. and RcndigS
were successfully called, and their yer.
dict confirmed DR.. Zippsrlen. with the
exception of DR.. Rondigs who took Il
moIe hopeful view of the case. During
all this time Mrs. Winter suffered the
severest fortunes
Hcmorrhages succeeded each other
in rapid succession. Her coughing
spells were continuous, and wasted her
from robust woman to mere skele-
ton. Mr. Winter, who is brother OF
of Mr.. Gus winter, of the firm of VOICE
& Winter, the Main street cigar man
ufaciurers, lavished his time and mon
ely in every endeavor to alay the suflar-
ings of his wife, but without success.
As the DAYS advanced the malady be-
came worse. until the most sanguine
gave up all hope.
Last Sunday an event in the nature
of a miracle occurred. As usual, Mrs.
Winter awoke with a terrible spell OF
cough No. followed by hemorrha &c.
Suddenly she felt II gradual rising pain
in her left side. The singing pain
rose higher and higher, unit | all at once
she felt hard substance emerge from
her throat aud fill her mouth. Spit.
ting it ont upon the floor, like rev"la-
on Il struck her that this was the
bone she had swallowed three year
ago. A closer examination revealed
the fact that The hard substa nce was 8
bone with numerous sharp edges. DR.
Annex was called, and pronounced
the case simply miraculous, and gave the
reassuring opinion that the effects o
this irritating tenant of the lady's luns
would soon wear away. The coughing
spell has since almost ceased, and, eX-
cept for the facilitating effect, she il
almost restored to health.
